Oh my goodness, that shot of the girls in the food dish..big heart melter! Does it get any more precious than that? I think not! Not sure if the forum is still doing RPOM, but if so, that would be a sure winner. Sooooo cute!! They are so tiny, the little angels! :heart:

Babies are 5 weeks old tomorrow and need to be separated. But they still nurse off Peach, is that normal? They eat solids too but the nurse a lot still. Hmmm.

I'm surprised mom still allows them to nurse at that age. She's a patient mom.
Yes, you can separate even if they are nursing occasionally. When I had rescue litters, I separated at about 5.5 weeks.

 

[HartRat]

She's an amazing mom! So patient. I'm sad to separate them.

 

[Vladina]

Oh, I would be sad too...I totally understand how you feel...if I ever had babies and it was time to separate them, I would probably bawl..

 

[Joanne]

At least the boys will have each other. It would be worse with a single baby.

 

[Vladina]

Good point Joanne!
